Worst one I've seen, Pete. :lr

Hawks really stunk it up. I don't think Rosival's hit on Zucker was dirty, thought he caught shoulder (no "hit to the head" penalty assessed), and Zucker was just unlucky enough to crack his coconut when he went down. Hope he is OK long ter.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

I don't think he meant to hit him high but he definitely got his elbow up over the shoulder. Zucker was half out before his head hit the ice. Don't think it was dirty, just size differential.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Hope he is OK, Pete.

Just watched one of the Avalanche pulling out a tooth on the bench after catching a puck in the mush. Ouch.

Hey Tom - hot of the press - Ladd is headed back to the Blackhawks.
Hope for him you guys make a run of it.....

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Would not be disappointed to see the Blackhawks beat the Preds night now.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Yeah, heard about it this A.M.....pretty solid rental, Neil.

Sorry, E.J..... :hn

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Most people liked Ladd. I thought him over-rated myself. He is going to be expensive next year anyway, especially if he goes deep into the playoffs - his value will go up. I think Ladd did the best of everybody...

I think we did alright too:

"top pick, top prospect" being touted around town.



Is Marko Dano any good? - I see he was playing with the Hogs - ?development, or does he just not make it in the NHL?

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Hawks gave him a chance straight out of camp, Neil, and he didn't stick. And he hasn't been back, so he certainly isn't ready for the Hawks line-up presently. But he is very young, and has a lot of "potential"....maybe he will live up to it in the 'Peg.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Heard Dano will make his Jets' debut tomorrow.

The Jiri Sekac era has ended in Chitown.

Man I loved watching that Avs vs Wings alumni game. The old school highlights had me going and the game ended right! What a great rivalry!!! Hold chit what a ton of players!

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Avs lose the Stadium Series game, but win the jersey game. Avs jersey was good lookng, and that Red Wings ensemble was just hideous.

Hawks win the preview of the Stanley Cup Finals this afternoon, 3-2. :wo

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Finally got to watch a Bruins game and I should have known better, 13 for 31 at home, wow that's just terrible, I guess Rask can't take the pressure of playing in front of the hometown crowd. TB was 1 for 27 on their recent power plays, they scored 2 on the PP in 40 seconds against Rask, he's good for what ails you!

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Alumni game was better ;) I think I heard there was 43,000 in attendance for the game, man Sakic still has a nasty wrist shot :)

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

I just don't understand the trade for Boedker....:confused:

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Hejuk a long time guy for the Avs, so I understand it's hard to see him go. Boedker has a lotta upside....scored 2 GW OT goals against the Hawks when they eliminated the Hawks in 2012.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Stupid Vashilevsjinovsky was 1 minute from getting me a shutout in the fantasy league. Stupid Canadian. ;) :r

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

I don't know why I dumped him... bad move on my part, not going to get manager of the year.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

You will if you sweep the playoffs. ;)

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Well we didn't trade Suter unfortunately but we did have the biggest steal of the trade deadline. We got an actual hockey player for Niklas Backstrom. I figured we wouldn't get more than a bucket of pucks for him.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Big game tonight, Pete!
